Description: Drawing by José Emilio Fuentes Fonseca.UntitledTechnique: Ink on paperMeasures: 8.6 x 11.8 inchesSignature: JEFF 21 214 Jose Emilio Fuentes Fonseca (JEFF) is an artist who was born in Cuba in 1974. He came to live in Havana at 7 years old, where he still lives and works today. He is frequently referred to as a "Naïve" or "Outsider" artist, since he principally works on themes such as childhood and childishness with a visible passion for toys and children’s art.JEFF’s work has been influenced by his own experience, as he was brought up by his grandparents, and spent his childhood separated from his parents in Oriente Province. When he was 9 years old, his brother found a stick of dynamite and brought it home, JEFF’s curiosity made him lose 3 fingers. From that moment, his work has always aimed at denouncing this world of omnipresent danger. He manipulates the children’s language to create a surprising impression of simplicity. Sailboats made of jagged, rusty metal, or wooden trains transporting severed limbs are some of the toys he created.JEFF began studying art at age 13. When he was age 21, got a grant from the Ludwig Foundation of Cuba (LFC) to produce his Landscape at 21 installation. In 1994, his first solo exhibition at Havana’s Museo Municipal de Alquízar Álvaro Reinoso Valdez with El Rostro Innocente (in English: The Innocent Face) he received his first recognition as a significant artist. El Rostro Innocente installation featured a classroom full of broken chairs in which on the back of each chair was a pair of lead wings and paintings of fetuses with congenital birth defects covered the classroom walls.JEFF was a guest artist of the Havana Biennial from March 27 to April 30, 2009. He created a herd of 12 metal elephants, which he moved from place to place throughout the city during the night.

Llegó a vivir a La Habana a los 7 años, donde aún vive y trabaja en la actualidad. Con frecuencia se le conoce como un artista "Naïve" o "Outsider", ya que trabaja principalmente en temas como la infancia y la puerilidad con una visible pasión por los juguetes y el arte infantil. El trabajo de JEFF ha sido influenciado por su propia experiencia, como lo fue criado por sus abuelos, pasó su infancia separado de sus padres en la provincia de Oriente. Cuando tenía 9 años, su hermano encontró una barra de dinamita y se la llevó a casa, la curiosidad de JEFF le hizo perder 3 dedos. Desde ese momento, su obra siempre ha tenido como objetivo denunciar este mundo de omnipresente peligro. Manipula el lenguaje de los niños para crear una sorprendente impresión de sencillez. Veleros hechos de metal dentado, oxidado o trenes de madera que transportan miembros amputados son algunos de los juguetes que creó. JEFF comenzó a estudiar arte a los 13 años. Cuando tenía 21 años, obtuvo una subvención de la Fundación Ludwig de Cuba (LFC) para producir su instalación Paisaje a los 21.
